The Ben Shapiro Show Ep. 2232 - Dems LIE, Blame Trump For Storm Deaths…PLUS, Illegal Immigrant “Superman”!
Media Lies Debunked: How Trump Wasn't to Blame for Texas Flood Disaster
Focus on the facts: the Texas flash flood that killed over 100 people was not caused by cuts to the National Weather Service under President Trump.
Ben Shapiro exposes the media and Democratic narrative falsely blaming Trump for government cuts leading to inadequate weather forecasts. The National Weather Service actually issued flood watches and warnings well in advance — more than 12 hours notice and multiple warnings before catastrophic flooding.
Officials confirm staffing was adequate, with more meteorologists on duty than usual during the storm. The media narrative blaming Trump's cuts is a manufactured scandal.
This exemplifies the leftist media bias to politically blame Republican presidents for natural disasters instead of focusing blame on appropriate local authorities when a Republican is in office.
Texas Flash Flood Forecast Accuracy
- The Texas flash flood was catastrophic with rapid river rises up to 26 feet in 45 minutes, causing devastating damage and many deaths.
- Despite this, the National Weather Service accurately forecasted the event well in advance, disproving media claims of government failure.
Media Lies on Flood Responsibility
- Media falsely blamed Trump's administration for the Texas flood deaths by accusing cuts to the National Weather Service.
- Data shows staffing was sufficient and the NWS issued timely warnings, making media claims a politically motivated lie.
